Weekly Golf Results – February 16, 2026

Saturday was the final round of the Summer Competition sponsored by BWR Accountants and Advisors. It was a 4BBB Multiplier with an Individual in Conjunction and there were 66 players out on the course. Huge shout out to Brett and Cathy for again sponsoring this kickstart event in the PGC calendar and it was a rousing success once again.

In the teams event it was the early morning golfers dominating with John Dwyer and Mick Bond taking the spoils with a whopping 79 points out in front of the pairing of Ron Hetherington and Col Breaden on 75 points. John has been in sterling form of late and was the leading scorer in the Individual stakes with a 40 point haul which included a scintillating 40 strokes heading back to the clubhouse. Mick was much more than a support act playing solidly and recording 35 individual points as well. They kicked off with a 9 pointer and never looked back. Ron Hetherington had a great individual day out with an 81 off the stick returning him 38 points. He had 4 bogeys only on the front and although a bit more ragged on the back still had a 41. Col, who is not used to going this far into the season to record a win, had a solid 36 point haul, coming home in 19 points. The only other pairing to record in the 70s was the ageless pair of John Fowler and John Pearce with a 72. John Pearce recorded a 20 point back 9 with the obvious lure to get back in the air-conditioning making the golfers record the least amount of shots this summer. Whilst John Fowler only scored a 33 point round it was more important that they scored together on the holes which gave them a solid total.

Other good individual scores on the day were Luke Clyne starting to get going now February has rolled in. He also shot 40 points again coming home in 41 shots which equated to 22 points and gave him the Individual win on the day. Ian Phipps had an excellent 79 off the stick with 3 birdies and again a 38 off the stick back into the clubhouse. A couple of players who have been in the Kalahari form wise but are coming back to greener pastures now in Tony Hendry and David Stevenson shot very good 38 point rounds.

This weekend the PGC Div 1-3 pennant sides travel to Cowra and will face off the mighty Forbes GC in the yearly grudge matches. Club Captain John Green is quietly confident of picking up the wins.
